Question

A class of 40 students elected a class president. There were 12 votes for Candidate A, and 18 votes for Candidate B. The rest of the class did not vote. Which expression gives the percent of voters who voted for Candidate A?

Answer 1

40  students
12-A
18-B 
40-12=28
28-18=10
10/40 did not vote.
25% did not vote
10 is one fourth of 40
fourth of 100% is 25%
